How to Make Sweet Potato And Corn Fritters

  1. Peel and grate the sweet potato. In a large bowl, combine the grated sweet potato, thawed corn, grated ginger, chopped herbs, flour, milk, and egg yolk. Mix well until just combined.
  2. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg white with a whisk or electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the stiff egg whites into the sweet potato mixture. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  4. Heat the butter or oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot pan, leaving space between each fritter. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve the sweet potato and corn fritters immediately. Top with crumbled cooked bacon, if desired.
